The narrative of pulp fiction is formost a gangster film. However the poster has elements of film noir this is due to the actress featured on the poster representing a femfatal figure. This assumption by the audience is because of her tight black dress, red lip stick, cigareete and high heels. But the key element that joins the genres of gangster and noir is the carfully placed gun. The gun is front centre and helps get the message of possible violence in the film and how a gun is seen is a form of defence control and status.
The setting of the photo is a low lit room the dark colours help represent the element of mystery and you get a shady feel almost like this could be a hideout.
